Seven Month update!

Didn't I just do a 6 month update on my little girl!

Time sure flies!

What a wonderful seven months this little girl has given me.

It is so much fun to watch her grown and learn each day.

Right now she is working on crawling.

Food bribes seem to help. She will get there soon!

I need to start baby proofing!

She is still an excellent sleeper! She always sleeps through the night!

She is wonderful in the car. We just went up to SLC and she slept almost the entire time half way and never fussed! She was even laughing!

Tito and Miss Lex are pretty good friends. We went out of town for a few days and when we came back he greeted her with 1,000 kisses.

She loves baby food! A few months ago she wasn't crazy about it, but she understands that its "food" now!

She really is the easiest baby in the world. We have been so blessed.

She is attached to mom right now, which is so adorable, but slightly frustrating at the same time.

She will out grow it :)

She loves to play and finds great entertainment in an empty water bottle.

She is right on track with everything. Still has a huge head, and I always feel bad putting shirts on her, but she gets over it.

She talks/screams so much! Its the best thing to wake up to!

She never cries! When I hear the baby monitor in the morning the first thing I hear is..

- "dadadadadada"

-"uhhhhhhahhhuhhhah"

-other weird noises

She is the best blessing.

Earrings!

Well, I did it. I finally went to get her ears pierced!

It was the worst thing in the world.

Worst!

She cried and cried and cried! I felt like a horrible mother.

They sure look adorable though.

The hardest part is going to be cleaning them three times a day for the next six weeks! She hates is already, but I supposed they are still tender. Mine would be!

Life with The Jenkins has been pretty good lately. We don't do much because we prefer staying at home! Lexi wears us out too! She is always awake and becoming so active and a handful!... It is not as fun to take her out to eat anymore..she wants everything! Although she did sleep while we went out to dinner last night!

For times when we just need Broc and Ashley time...I am very thankful for Broc's parents who live in town!

She is trying to crawl, just can't get the hang of it!

Although, this face is adorable.

She has a lot more melt downs.

Especially when mommy leaves..

and when she is left alone with daddy.

She can say "dada" now and its adorable.

She likes the front carrier.

She is heavy though!

She loves being a big girl and looking around in the store!

Sun burn in march?...

I guess I learned that if I'm going to be in the sun to just pull all my hair back!

Other wise you get a sweet burn line and everyone things you're a freak.

A little other news besides Lexi..
We had to buy a new washer today!..Over the last year we have had our washer fixed many times and of course it all happens after the warranty expires. So...we gave up and just bought another one. I am very excited because laundry is over flowing. I feel that my house is so dirty when there are baskets, and baskets, and baskets of laundry. I'm not kidding. I think I have at least 4 baskets up stairs to do tomorrow when we go to Broc's parents for Sunday dinner.
Also, if anyone is still reading this..(thanks) we were called to Nursery! First reaction: free babysitter.
We have been in there for about 2-3 weeks. I think we are blessed for this calling because we are able to take Lexi and she can play. We don't have to worry about her being loud or making noises..because its always noisy. Anyways, Broc's birthday is coming up on March 30th and I surprised with UTAH JAZZ tickets. We love the Jazz and we are very excited to go!
